Brain, rather than being composed out of highly specialized and separated building blocks like microprocessors, is the best parallel fabric for integrating together processing, communication and storage; it does not use Boolean operations to perform logical operations on well defined stable states, but it involves the dynamics of phase transition to code and to process information. Cognitive Computing is amazing and it will have far reaching exploitations, but a great techological breakthrough would be required for mimicking real biological brain functioning.
